"i saw you imogen, but i didn't see you." -mira

"can i wear this all the days and even in sleep?" -juno

"mommy, i just love your armpits." -juno


our first official homeschool week is coming to a close and i already had to pick up second grade reading and math for imogen to have on hand. she is whizzing through everything.

my biggest challenge: the littles and keeping them occupied

if i didn't tell you already my house is in total disarray. we are finally getting new carpet (after our house flooded in jan) and i have all of the closets cleaned and put into random places, not to mention all of the "stuff" that is on or in our furniture so it makes moving it very easy.
and on top of all the mess, i decided to repaint our master bedroom. i mean i loved our dark charcoal color, but it was time for a change.

my next painting project: our closet doors {if my giant gets on board}
but not until my pinched nerve goes away.

when imogen was a newborn and wouldn't sleep, i bet rob $2000 (that we didn't have) that he couldn't get her to fall asleep in his arms. man, did we try, but her colic and fear of missing out won every time.
if only i knew the formula of cc + recess + presentations + turkey and grapes for lunch would do the trick...

i finally watched the documentary vaxxed. please, please take the time to watch it if you haven't.  i found it on amazon. it's not a film on anti vaccinations. it's a film letting you know what really happened and the huge cover up that followed.
all i know is do your own research, be informed, make wise decisions not just what the masses do or what they tell you to do.

oh how the girls would love to be invited over to a friends to play. my homegirls ask why, but i keep telling them, we will just continue to have friends over here and maybe they will reciprocate the invitation one day. i really think everyone just gets caught up in their own lives and don't think about it. much like family not acknowledging other's huge life events. what?! did i just say that?
but i am in continued prayer for playmates, for true friends to do recess with, to do cooking projects with, to do life with.

bike rides, swimming, reading, cleaning, purging and trying to figure out what to feed my giant.
+ cheering on the huskers.
happy weekend.
